APA California and the Northern Section Conference Host Committee is excited to release the Call for Sessions for the APA California 2025 Conference, which will be held from September 28 to October 1 in beautiful Monterey.
This year’s theme, Waves of Change — Reconnecting Communities, highlights the critical role of our planning community in shaping California’s future. From the picturesque coastline of Monterey to the dynamic urban and rural landscapes across the state, planners are at the forefront of fostering connections and driving transformative progress.
As always, the conference program will be central to the success of this event; therefore we invite you to submit a session abstract proposal by Monday, March 10, 2025. NOTE: There will be no extensions, so please plan appropriately!
The Conference Host Committee will tentatively host a webinar on tips and tricks for submitting session proposals on Friday, February 7, 2025, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. The webinar is geared towards helping to highlight new or underrepresented voices at the Conference. Stay tuned for more information.
